part of the Perl core. The programmer is responsible for
providing a dummy implementation of the required functions if the
package is not installed on the target system.

An example is available in the examples directory: hello-perl.

The xgettext parser backend for Perl differs significantly from
the parser backends for other programming languages, just as Perl

Perl parser backend offers many more string marking facilities than
the other backends but it also has some Perl specific limitations, the
worst probably being its imperfectness.
